D’Sylva’s Fried Chicken

We help Chef Adam D’Sylva serve up the crispiest fried chicken at the Grand Slam Oval at AO2021.

Post-COVID, the Australian Open 2021 focused on the best Victoria has to offer. Celebrating local produce and showcasing local chefs, we helped chef Adam D’Sylva debut his famous fried chicken.

"We've got what I call my famous chicken, which is fried chicken with Vietnamese slaw. My favourite is the Dirty Bird, which is fried chicken with habanero chilli sauce, jalapenos, pickles and fries – it's nice and spicy.

"There are also burgers – a Japanese one, the AO Classic for anyone who doesn't want any spice, and there's a vegetarian burger called the Dahl Bun," D'Sylva says.

Apart from being able to serve up his spin on fried chicken to thousands of punters, the Australian Open is one of D'Sylva's favourite events. "It's the pinnacle event that kicks the year off, really," he says. "I just love the atmosphere of it all – it's two weeks of fun."
